SAUDI TURF TEAM HANDBALL Offence

SAUDI TURF TEAM HANDBALL Offence

Left and right wingman: These typically are fast players who excel at ball control and wide jumps from the outside of the goal perimeter in order to get into a better shooting angle at the goal. Teams usually try to occupy the left position with a right-handed player and vice versa.

Left and right backcourt: Goal attempts by these players are typically made by jumping high and shooting over the defenders. Thus, it is usually advantageous to have tall players with a powerful shot for these positions.

Centre backcourt: A player with experience is preferred on this position who acts as playmaker and the handball equivalent of a basketball point guard.

Pivot (left and right, if applicable): This player tends to intermingle with the defence, setting picks and attempting to disrupt the defence's formation. This positions requires the least jumping skills; but ball control and physical strength are an advantage.
